Saints CB Marshon Lattimore, WR Chris Olave both expected to play vs. Eagles

New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) is expected to play on Sunday versus the Eagles, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reports, per a source. Wide receiver Chris Olave (hamstring) is also expected to play, Rapoport added.

Lattimore has not played since Oct. 9, as he has been recovering from a lacerated kidney suffered while trying to make a play on an opponents' touchdown in Week 5. Sidelined by the injury for the last 10 games, Lattimore never went on injured reserve, as the injury is one which does not have a definitive timeline for a return.

But now, after being listed as a limited participant all week with no injury designation on Friday's report, it looks like he's finally healed up enough to play again.

Olave has not been away from the field quite as long as his teammate, but did miss last week's matchup because of his hamstring injury, along with another game earlier in the season. He was a limited participant all week in practice and labeled as questionable, but should be back on the field on Sunday to face Philadelphia.

As a rookie, Olave has shown he can be a big contributor in New Orleans' offense, collecting 940 receiving yards and three touchdowns this season. With solid performances in the last two games of the season, Olave could surpass the 1,000 receiving yard benchmark in his first NFL season.
